Using Derby disk database with JBoss eap 6.4.
-
Crash
Description
We got a 'java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space' when using a Derby disk database with the following schema.
CREATE TABLE TEST ( ID BIGINT NOT NULL
, NEXT _ID BIGINT
, PREV_ ID BIGINT
, TEST_XML XML);
ALTER TABLE TABLE
ADD PRIMARY KEY
(ID);
I opened the heap dump with Eclipse Memory Analyzer and found that tree instances of org.apache.derby.impl.store.access.sort.MergeInserter occupies 290 MB of memory (that is 66 % of the total heap)
The problem seems to be that MergeInserter holds a sort buffer that contains complete rows and the TEST_XML is about 160 kB each. MergeInserter has an advanced algorithm to calculate the allowed size of the buffer, but is it necessary store the complete row in the buffer, i.e. the non-indexed values (TEST_XML is this case)?
Is there some property I can set to limit the buffer size or is it possible to rewrite the SQL schema someway to exclude the XML type from the buffer?
Following is the dominator tree from Eclipse Memory Analyzer:
